SERVPRO of Alachua County West is here for ALL your disaster needs. But did you know that we also do biohazard clean up?
When most people think of SERVPRO, the first thing(s) that come to mind are our neon green vehicles that cannot be missed. Next, people tend to recall the fact that we "clean up all that water and fire stuff." As people get to know SERVPRO more and more, they begin to realize that we do water damage, mold and fire damage clean up and restoration, but also much more!
SERVPRO of Alachua County West is licensed and certified for biohazardous waste clean up. Biohazardous waste can mean a few things, but in most cases it is referring to human excrements. This refers to blood, feces or urine. Whatever the cause may be and whatever is affected, we are always here to help.
Majority of the biohazard clean up that is performed by SERVPRO includes but is not limited to: bloodborne pathogen clean up, chemical clean up, crime scene residue clean up and sewage backup clean up. However, one interesting side of biohazard clean up that SERVPRO of Alachua County West is also particularly experienced in is "Hoarder Home" clean up.
A "hoarder" is defined as a person that feels the need to obtain and store away massive amounts of particular items that they deem necessary in their life. Many people are guilty of being a "pack rat" from time to time. A hoarder home is the extreme version of that. Their homes are generally disheveled, with overstocked fridges, rotting food, etc. This is where SERVPRO comes in. We rid the home of the unneeded items (old, unsalvageable or past their expiration date), we attempt to restore all belongings and structural pieces that we can and we perform a deep clean. It is a process, but by the end, we take that "hoarder home" and turn it into a beautifully clean home that one would be proud of.
